CONTINUE YOUR EDUCATION

It is a Yoga Alliance Requirement that in order to maintain your status as a registered yoga teacher, you are required to do a minimum of 30 Continuing Education hours every three years. These courses were created to help you refine your teaching skills and to support you in your development as an inspiring yoga teacher. Please note that our Yoga Retreats count as Continuing Education credits. All of our Continuing Education programs qualify as electives in our Advanced Yoga Teacher Training Program.

This inspiring and comprehensive 85 Hour Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training Program, led by Teresa Campbell will include how to teach prenatal yoga to women in all stages of pregnancy, in an empowering way.

In this training, examine what meditation is, why we do it and how to do it, from a variety of viewpoints. Knowing why meditation works, and the range of benefits we can receive from meditation, helps to motivate us to establish and keep a regular daily practice. Knowing the obstacles that may arise during the practice will help us to be more vigilant, and to take things as they come. This course will be a balance of theory and practice helping you to establish a solid meditation practice.

Restorative Yoga Teacher Training is both for Yoga Teachers with their 200 hour certification working towards their AYTT (500 hour certificate), and anyone wanting to incorporate restorative practices into their work or personal lives.

This fifth/throat chakra Kundalini Yoga Immersion/Teacher Training explores how clarity in vision and the ability to clearly articulate that vision are key to magnetizing the people, resources and circumstances you need to manifest your dreams.

This program will qualify you to be an inspiring, safe and effective teacher. However, we also have many students who enroll solely for their own personal development. Tools learned during this program will enable you to gain greater fulfillment from your yoga practice and your life.

At Semperviva we don’t follow a single lineage, style or approach. We pride ourselves on having a diverse teaching staff with different backgrounds so that you can gain a well-rounded view of all styles. Through the training and your teaching practice, we want you to find your own voice and a teaching method that is authentic to you.

All Semperviva Yoga College faculty are Yoga Alliance Certified at the 200 hour or 300 hour level, and continue their studies to bring you the freshest inspiration possible. Our teachers range from all traditions of yoga and are committed to your higher learning. Assistant teachers may be a part of all trainings. For more information on our teacher training faculty, please visit our Please see our Core faculty and Master Teachers. To meet some of our faculty members, attend an Information Session.

100% attendance is required for all Semperviva trainings.
On occasion we may be able to make a special arrangement for a missed class for the 200 hour training. Please ensure that any such requests arising from scheduling conflicts are communicated to Semperviva prior to the training, so that we can discuss whether a special arrangement will be possible. There will usually be an additional charge for such arrangement (for example, private sessions are charged at $100/hour).

Yoga Alliance registers both individual yoga teachers and yoga teacher training programs (schools) who have complied with educational standards established by the organization. Their mission is to lead the yoga community, set standards, foster integrity, provide resources, and uphold the teachings of yoga. Although registration with the Yoga Alliance is not legally required for teaching yoga, most studios and fitness centers will require teachers to be registered with the Yoga Alliance. All Semperviva Yoga Teacher Training graduates are automatically eligible for Yoga Alliance registration.
